Russell Crowe is circling the film adaptation of the late 80's action TV series "The Equalizer" according to The Los Angeles Times. The late great Edward Woodward starred as Robert McCall, a former operative of a covert intelligence organisation who seeks redemption for his dark past via offering his services to those being persecuted and in need of help.
McCall brings justice to various hoodlums, killers, dealers, rapists and other scum on the streets of New York City. He also performed assignments for the head of his former organization and dealt with his estranged son.
The show was noted for its memorable theme tune, McCall's signature Jaguar XJ6 car, and its realistic handling of the spy world with sometimes brutal violence and a lack of fancy gadgets.
No studio is yet attached to the project which has been in deveopment for years
Alex Siskin and Mace Neufeld will produce the adaptation.
